Are you really keeping up with the Jones’s?
Screw the Jones’s, They are Keeping You Broke!
When Comparing Drives You Insane!
We compare ourselves with others daily, be it makeup, clothes, cars, houses, pets… if you can name it you have probably compared it!
There is nothing wrong in comparisons as long as its done in a balanced way, and I can tell you, we rarely compare that way. Jealousy and envy often pop their heads up. Emotions like these are prime candidates for manipulation.
“Get the latest XYZ product TODAY! Get it on our ABC finance package Today!”
Before you know it you have left the store, with two products, one that will depreciate in value quickly, the other costing hundreds or thousands in interest just so that you can be as good, if not better, than those damn Jones’s!
Psssst, the Jones’s are most likely doing Exactly the SAME THING!
Even worse, you finally get that thing, then realise its not what you really liked or wanted! (And… you are still paying for it…..)
Before you know it, keeping up with the Jones’s has you feeling sick, angry, dejected, frantic, and thats all in the space of a few moments!
